My Frizzle is 100% All ROO!! (Updated Page 4)

[Rosecomb-Ryan]

my grandma raises Sizzles and that is a roo due to color and comb wise

Definately a male, you can really see it now that he's dry.

My guess is a boy as well. But I guess the only way to find out is if she/he lays an egg. It sure is cute whatever it is

Its ok that he is a boy he has a forever home here with me! I just was not sure have never raised a frizzle so didn't quite know what to expect. Now I do! He is very beautiful to me and I am thankful he is mine!!

I am still learning but see the tail feathers that curve downward over his bummm....pointy and slick...sign of a roo and that bean on his head is way larger than a hens...i would guess a roo. And a mighty fine looking one at that!!! He is pretty! I like the partridge roos!

Thank you! I notice that myself when he was wet they seemed very much more slicker then when my girls got wet and now being fluffed up I see the pointyness in the feathers. I am hoping to breed him to one of my nicer black girls and see what kind of offspring I get from him. I would love to have one his same coloring but with out the single comb.

I'm sort of new to this but I have 10 cochin frizzles that are 10 weeks old. I have hens that have pointyish feathers so I don't think that method of sexing is very accurate with frizzles because their feathers are so screwy anyway. "Her" comb is really not that large and it's shaped differently than a roo's. My 4 roo's have thicker larger combs that cover more of their beak from side to side. The hen's combs are smaller but they are thinner too and don't cover the top of the beak. My hens have much smaller wattles. I've been watching and holding mine since they were born and the hen's feel wider and chunkier. The roos have these larger upper leg muscles. The hen's look like potatoes with little heads and the roos have longer necks and look gauky. (She looks too intelligent to be a guy.!)I'm betting she's a hen. Men: please don't send hate mail I was just kidding.
